so many people ive heard say things like "my car hasnt got to 100k yet so im not doing timing yet" they forget that there is a time limit too as rubber can perish over time. so its nice that you do these things regardless, brakes would have been fine but im sure you feel better when you come to sell it knowing its done and safe. keep up the good work and nicely done !!!

You usually turn out great vehicles, but that one must be your car of the year. For anyone who is in the market for a great, clean low mileage car, that must be the one for them. Not just your perfect, reliable work, but a shrewd buy when you opted to take it on. Buy right and sell well, this must be a great one for the business. You have a lovely weekend and the same to all viewers. It sounds like an upcoming week to get nice and fit, to be ready to enjoy.

A genuine comment Rob, I use to use copper slip on the sliders but it would turn to paste and make them stiff. Red grease is better and also red grease is better for the rubber boots on the sliders as it doesn’t degrade them. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻

Rubber boots don't really need anything only a light smear on the the face of the steel piston. We do use red grease but only on the internal seals or o rings
